hello,
i recently purchased 1gb of vx pc3200 memory, and am having trouble getting it stable at the advertised speed/timings.
right now, i am running it at 8-3-3-3; 2.8v, however, before this, i did try running it at 8-2-2-2 3.2v, but would get many application crashes, when i closed programs.
i also pumped 3.5v trying to reach 250mhz, but was unable no matter how loose i set the timings.
i am using the a15 bios with memtest built in, on a dfi nf3 250gb motherboard, and a CH 3400+.
would this warrant an RMA? if there are any other tests i should run, please let me know. i did run memtest @ 200mhz, 5-2-2-2, @ 3.3v which went unsuccessful after 7passes.
thanks for your time
